Teaching Trauma Without Traumatizing: Principles of Trauma Treatment in the Training of Graduate Counselors

Department of Educational Psychology and Leadership Studies, Faculty of Education, University of Victoria, Victoria, BC, Canada, tblack{at}uvic.ca

The author presents a model for teaching graduate students about trauma treatment based on the principles of resourcing, titration, and reciprocal inhibition. The author reviews relevant literature on the issue of teaching trauma and recommendations for faculty, followed by examples of how to use the above principles in a 6-week university-based graduate course on trauma counseling. Evidence supporting the use of the author’s teaching model is anecdotal, and as such, the author identifies future research that will inform counseling psychology educators as this field continues to develop.
